Startxwin starts a hung xterm


I just installed the latest cygwin-xfree (on 5/12/04) under Win XP. When I
start Xwin via startxwin.bat, the x server seems to start up normally. The
next line in the batch file,
	"run xterm -sl 1000 -sb -rightbar -ms red -fg yellow -bg black -e
/usr/bin/bash -l"
launches an xterm, which starts up completely hung, with an all white
background.

The same thing happens if I try starting up via startxwin.sh or startx. I
have tried changing the parms passed to Xwin, in turn dropping -multiwindow
and -clipboard options, both to no avail.

If I close the hung xterm and relaunch it from bash, I get the message
"xterm Xt error: can't open display:"
No display is listed in the message.

I have been using cygwin-xfree successfully on a W2k maching for several
months. I was a bit surprised that a fresh install on XP did not work right
away. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Here is my Xwin.log file:
